Makes a change from a mass shooting. Something I'm sure the gun lobby will highlight as a reason to keep guns.

At least no one died this time.

I'd say the fact nobody died is actually the most important thing. If 20 people get shot with an assault rifle, even one 'hobbled' to only be able to fire as a semi-automatic weapon, most of them are going to die. If 20 people get stabbed with a knife most of them (or, as in this case, all of them) are going to live. There is no arguable way where not having guns is not better.
